It's bad that it doesn't work as advertised. Read the Sun coding standards. They don't AvoidInlineConditionals, for example. The Sun coding standard says nothing about DesignForExtension, since design is not an aspect of formatting. Correct your RedundantThrows and then there is no way to javadoc a method that might throw both an IOException and a FileNotFoundException.

Is that now what you want?
